Back in black? You bet your Hello Kitty Dreamcast! Details inside.

At the recent retailer summit held by Sega of America, the company confirmed plans to produce a special edition "Sega Sports" Dreamcast for release this fall. Details on the console were limited, but we do know the unit will be black in color, returning to a long-standing tradition for Sega hardware broken by the Dreamcast's Grey casing.

No word if the console will come with any additional goodies, such as packed-in sports titles or an extra controller, but we can keep our fingers crossed. Sega also confirmed that this was but the first of many "special edition" machines we would be seeing in the coming months, tipping a hat to Nintendo's recent flood of color units. More details as they become available.
